I'm trying to follow this supposedly simple initialization process for DataTables plugin TableTools. As far as I can tell, I'm simply supposed to specify the tableTools parameter, within which I follow the same process to initialize other TableTools options. However, I'm getting literally nothing using the code below.

Is there anyone familiar with the plugin that can help?

jQuery

$('#ReportTable').dataTable({
    "aaData": array,
    "aoColumns": headers,
    "bFilter": false,
    "bPaginate": false,
    "bLengthChange": false,
    "bFilter": false,
    "bSort": false,
    "bInfo": false,
    "aaSorting": [],
    "oLanguage": {
        "sSearch": "Filter results:"
    },
    "dom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip',
    "tableTools": {
        "aButtons": [ "copy", "print" ]
    }
});

Results

I just get the DataTable, not TableTools button menu.

I had this problem, and I solved it by changing 

"dom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip',"

to 

"sDom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip'"

(change dom to sDom). No idea why, but it worked.
